Well, at least Mendoza's connect rate went up.

I understand gil.
Oh, re Gonzalez, I think you're thinking of his fight with Roger Gonzalez (the guy whose name you couldn't recall).

Orozco.. 141.5 to 158.75, nice.

I have that fight too, but I think it went longer (Yes as I thought the fight with Roger went 6 rounds). Maybe I'm wrong. The name I was thinking of was Gabriel Elizando I believe. He was dropped in the 1st by Elizondo and then proceeded to drop him 4 times in the 2nd.

Had to go look at my tapes.

I've never heard that either.

Orozco controlled the entire round even when he wasn't punching.

Round: Orozco

Orozco 10-9

10-9 Orozco.

2 of 10

More of the same... Orozco wearing him out with body shots.

Round: Orozco
Orozco 20-18

20-18 Orozco.

Another ass whipping.

Orozco TKO3 as he drops Hernandez and then pounds him with the ref stopping it.

Rafael Marquez is coming back Sept. 7th how about that? I've always been a big fan of both Marquez brothers. I hope Rafael can look ok coming back. They're not matching him too tough in his first fight back. Pitting him against a guy that's 16-2-1. If he can't look good against this guy, he should consider hanging 'em up for good.

I'll be rooting for a one sided KO win for Rafa though.

He should've retired when Mijares stopped him. He's finished.

I don't think he's got another title win in his future, but I've always been a fan and always will be. I don't abandon my guys because they choose to fight on past their prime, I would advise against it...but ultimately it's his career, it's his choice and I respect that. If I'm a fan, I'm a fan to the end.

I have no problem with rooting for your favorites; I did for Tito v. Jones even though I thought he should've stayed retired.

So uhhhh........what's happening now? This is kind of a long break.

They showed The All Access Show Mayweather vs Canelo (basically Showtimes's version of 24/7)

The main card just started now. The fights haven't started yet, they're just discussing them.

Thanks, I hate being in Atlantic time.

Yeah I always think they should show the undercard all the way up until the main card.

x3

holy piss... Terrazas 121 to 139.5.. Where's DW at, I need to see if this is the largest % gain.

See ya in 4 rounds fellas. Unless there's a KO.

And Santa Cruz is fighting, so this is going to be a decision....it's going to be like 1 30 am here before the Mares fight even starts.

I looked up his record before I made my pick for the bout, it was nothing to suggest he's somebody to take lightly.
